Who Are You Listening To...?

One concept I try to encourage people to think about in my talks, is WHO you are listening to in terms of guidance for your food choices. On a larger level, this might be thought of in terms of listening to family, friends, partners, doctors, mainstream nutritionists, the media and so on...and on a more intimate level, we might think about which part of our beings we are taking our cues from, in terms of what to eat, when and how much...
This more 'personal' level is what I'd like to focus on here. It seems to me that most people listen primarily to a combination of their taste-buds and their minds, when determining when and what to eat...and yet, food is essentially fuel for the physical body, rather than the mind...and the physical body tends to work towards optimal physical health... Your body wants to be healthy, rather than in a state of dis-ease...however, while your body might be yearning for leafy greeeeeeeeens, small portions and lots of fresh juices, your mind and tastebuds may have a completely different agenda ;)

Most of us reading this quite likely grew up in circles of processed food sugar/fat/salt/additives/colourings addiction frenzies...and we may have plodded along that kind of path for a few decades before considering a change in direction...so, with this kind of background in mind, it is understandable that our tastebuds may be more than a little 'perverted' in their desires, especially when we initially switch to eating more raw...

As for our minds, well...if we have any kind of emotional 'stickiness'/dependency around food, our minds may surely be calling for food for any and every reason - because we're happy, sad, lonely, upset...or we feel like we 'deserve' it, we're celebrating, we're stressed, anxious, miserable...you name it ;)
Seldom do we seem to eat because we're genuinely physically hungry...indeed many people do not even seem to recognise what true physical hunger even feels like - it's like a pulling in the stomach, which intensifies if left unfed...

So when we feel an intense pull to eat, we might do well to ask ourselves WHERE this desire is coming from - is this our mind and tastebuds asking for entertainment, or is it actually our body asking for some more nutrition? So often we seem to listen to the whims and demands of the mind and tastebuds over the genuine concerns of the body...yet we can only ignore the body for so long though, before issues start to show up in the form of illnesses, sluggishness, excess weight and so on...

If we want to side-step these sticky patterns, we might do well to ask ourselves a few QUESTIONS as and when we feel the pull to eat...questions such as: when did I last eat? Have I fully digested that last meal yet? How much water have I drunk today? ...and so on...take a few moments to inquire of yourself around these ideas and then, if you do decide indeed to go ahead and consume something, there are three questions I love to encourage people to consider first about their food choices, all of which could be grouped together under the idea of 'could I be making a better choice right now...?'

Here are the three ideas to consider:

*how could I make this meal lighter? (e.g. instead of grabbing a handful of nuts, or a heavy nut+dried fruit bar, how about whipping up a greeeen smoothie in a few minutes instead?)

*how could I make this meal greeeeener? (Search for ways to get more leafy greeeeens into you - juices, smoothies, salads, soups, greens hidden in salad dressings, green powders sneaked into desserts, cookies and so on ;)

*how could I make this meal more nutrient/mineral-dense? (e.g. how might you be able to add seaweed into a meal - kelp sprinkled over a salad, dulse in a soup, salad wrapped in a nori sheet? Instead of grabbing just a banana, how about blending that nana up with some yummmmy nutrient-rich kale or parsley and topping with a few goji berries...? ...and so on...)

I hope these ideas have given you a little extra 'food for thought' when it comes to making food choices...so many of us seem to 'automatically' reach out for food in any given situation, following the promptings of those monkey minds and twisted tastebuds...well, perhaps now you'll feel the desire to listen more to that beautiful body of yours and get lighter, greener and more nutrient-dense by the bite ;)

ENJOY :)

The Longevity Conference Experience :)

Recently I was very excited to access the playback recordings of David Wolfe's "Longevity Conference", held live in California in March this year with hundreds of people in attendance. Some of my favouritist raw/health-orientated beings presented at the conference, including Wolfie, Solla, Mike Adams, Dr. Mercola, Truth Calkins, Nadine Artemis, Ian Clark and Donna Gates, among others - what a stunning line-up :)

I've been watching the playback videos from the Conference this last week and I absolutely *love* them :))) It seems that pretty much the entire weekend of talks/workshops was captured on video and is available now for playback - sooooo much amazing informative entertainment :)

So far I've seen Solla making delicious raw Thai soup and face packs, Mike Adams singing some of his latest song and talking about community, Dr. Mercola answering questions on Vitamin D and fructose, Nadine Artemis sharing an outstanding outline of dental care for raw foodies, Wolfie being his entertaining self, discussing everything from DNA structure to grounding technology, Jason Wrobel giving the most amusing raw chili demo you'll probably ever see and much much more - live experiments, q&a panels, live blood analysis discussions, elixir making...there's SO much packed into this DVD package...

The DVD set just launched last week and can currently be purchased HERE - you get access to all the videos both online AND in physical DVD format, plus you also get a very generous line-up of 'bonuses' too, including three discs of the whole "Elixir Mastery Workshop" after the main conference in March, a downloadable digital sampler of recipes from raw chef Frank Giglio and a downloadable file on Joint Health from Wolfie himself...wow, what a collection ;)

You can get your hands on a copy of all this goodness HERE...and I do believe tickets are already available for the next Longevity Conference in September 2010 too - yeeeeeeee-HAH - I hope to be there this time round ;)

ENJOY :)

Many of you know already that the Hurom is our juicer of preference and the Blendtec Blender with the 4" blade is our blender of choice... ;) We have done many videos and write-ups on these machines in the last year...

WELL...a while back we did some incredible deals on both these machines and there were soooooooooooo many requests to repeat these offers that we're delighted to bring you now, once again, some out-RAW-geous appliance offers - here's Mr. M's explanation of these new deals:

"I just got hold of over 400 Hurom Juicers, NEWEST model, and we are going to FINALLY offer them to you again at a discounted rate! Additionally, I am going to discount my favorite blender at the same time... The Blendtec Blender... Just so everyone gets their FINAL opportunity to get in on these specials, which finish on May 31st. We almost certainly won't be offering these specials again this year, so NOW is the time to take advantage of these offers if you're interested!

Here are the current specials:

Get $43 off the Hurom Juicer if you use the coupon code 'Hurom43'

Get $52 - $63 off all Blendtec models if you use the coupon code 'Blendtec52'

Get $54 off the Hurom Juicer and $60 - $73 off all Blendtec models if you buy a Hurom AND a Blendtec Blender TOGETHER, and you use the coupon code 'HuromBlendtec'

Personally, I feel that it is KEY if you purchase a Blendtec Blender, to MAKE SURE that you purchase one of the models with the larger 3qt (96oz) Carafe.

There are three Blendtec models:

Blendtec with a 2qt (64oz) Carafe $399.95

Blendtec with a 3qt (96oz) Carafe $429

Blendtec with a 2qt & 3qt Carafe $489.95

I almost didn't even offer the $399.95 model here, because I feel and know how beneficial the larger 3qt carafe is. The larger carafe oxidizes the contents less and works much better, in my opinion, than any Vitamix on the market, or the Blendtec 2qt carafe. If you want to see evidence of this, you can check out the write-up and videos I created on this subject by clicking HERE. In the video at that link, you can see a comparison of machines, which shows the food contents oxidizing less in the 3qt carafe compared to the Blendtec 2qt carafe or the Vitamix. I personally bought the Blendtec with the 2qt & 3qt carafes, because I like to have an extra carafe available for various uses and it's the least expensive way to get an extra carafe too.

This is probably the BEST deal that you will ever find on the Hurom Juicer and Blendtec Blenders. Before the Hurom Juicer became available, you could either get a quick juicing and easy-to-clean juicer such as the Breville Juice Fountain, or you could get a slower and harder to clean juicer, which produces juice with a much higher nutrient quality, such as the Green Star juicer. The Hurom Juicer is a REVOLUTIONARY juicer, which combines all of the benefits of HIGH nutrient quality, quick juicing, and easy cleaning.

I feel these are the TOP TWO appliances that are a MUST HAVE in my raw food kitchen. If I had to choose a third and fourth top appliance, it would be a food processor and a Green Star juicer. I am pretty hardcore with juicing my greens and the Green Star juicer can handle even the greens with extreme FIBROUS stems, such as nettles and mature alfalfa, which often ranges from 1-3 feet long. Even the Green Star jams sometimes when juicing these kinds of fibrous greens. When we lived in the USA, we didn't have access to alfalfa and nettles like the kind we have here, so it wasn't an issue for us to use the Hurom for all our juicing. We actually did a video back there, comparing the Green Star and the Hurom Juicer, which can be seen by clicking HERE.

Additionally, here are two more videos we did about the Hurom:

Does the Hurom Juicer do Wheatgrass & Banana Ice Cream?
